God, I hope they won't ban my self-defence force lighting and giant orbital laser station, that I keep to safeguard my home...
I own an orbital laser cannon for home defense, as the empire intended
Breaking News: Australian government to ban "Dangerous" light saber replicas after "Shocking and Violent" testing appears on CZcams.
😂
Good video, though
Shad is basically a walking, what Australia will ban next because only the bad guys and the government is allowed to have weapons.
I’m a little surprised you didn’t mention that, as it’s a fake blade, there is nothing keeping you from a murder stroke (holding by blade and hitting target with handle). This would allow you to hit with metal and still have the polycarbonate blade.
Good thing all those criminals follow those laws about carrying weapons...oh wait.
Actually a surprisingly big amount. Turns out when possesion is illegal, supply tends to be low as well. So the stupid ones are left without an opportunity to get good weapons. And the smart ones are less likely to use them, so the average problem becomes way less.
Yeah they tend to, because simply being caught with it on your body or in your possession is an instant arrest and not good for you. So there's no "It's an open carry state" or "I have a permit for that at home." It's "Show your permit right now, you can't open carry with it anyway, and you're under arrest." So if you see a guy out of uniform with a gun, in a situation of a farm or open carrying in any semi-urban environment? He's not supposed to have it and you call the cops. Hey it's only stopped mass-shootings for 30 odd years now, and the very concept of active shooter drills in schools will have kids looking at you weird.
How's your system going for you? ... Oh wait.
@@elana1463 A weapon doesn't have to be good to be lethal. Just look at the weapons they find in prisons, or look at the insane body counts from mass stabbings.
@@Jus7aguy So you're telling me there are no murders or assaults in Australia using weapons?
@@zaqzilla1 But numbers don't lie. As I wrote in some otehr answer the USa has homicide numbers that are 20 to 60 times bigger than in countries with more restrictive weapon laws(per capita) which demonstrates nicely that just outlawing guns can reduce the number of victims by 95%(and that is just official homicide adding the cases classified as suicide or accidents the numbers are even more in favor of getting rid of guns)
legalize sticks
Imagine the god given right for a man to defend his life and the lives of the innocent and weak being illegal.
Unfortunately we don’t have to imagine it; it’s real in far too many places.
Move to NYC.
I mean, it's one thing to go specifically after lethal weapons. Kinda iffy but I can see the logic in reducing casualties by reducing availability of weapons that cause them (my personal view on that is "only as a last resort" - implementing proper social programs to reduce the underlying causes of violent crime works better as it addresses the root cause rather than trying to treat a symptom). But a combat-grade lightsaber prop? That's a non-lethal weapon. Sure, there might be concern about using the hilt as a bludgeon but at that point you might as well throw everyone in their own separate padded rooms for life for their own protection, because you can do that with a rock or even your bare hands.
The only reason a government might have to ban even non-lethal forms of self defense is if they intend to mobilize against their own people in the future, or is paranoid about its people mobilizing against them. Neither reason is valid.
@@VestedUTuber The only reason a government would ban lethal weapons is to have the ability to overstep on their own people. Criminals will always find ways to do what they wish, that's why they are criminals, all making the laws do is make it harder for the innocent to defend themselves. Citizens should always have the best option to defend themselves at their disposal and that's lethal.
The root of the problem I agree with. It's why here in the U.S. teenagers would have their FA's in their trucks during hunting season forty years ago and there was no issue and why places like NYC with the most heavy FA control and laws, has the most FA and violent crime. The problem is cultural and social, not the tool available.
@@VestedUTuberParanoia is a disease not crime,but government is right on weapon ban especially in my countries just because layman lacks guns and other melee weapon doesnt mean gov want to control you,the amount of death averted by lack of a lethal weapon is great thing also my country do have shadow police who protect ppl in public areas(which is very effective because i saw such a situation being diffused)
You can use the handle as a mace if you hold the blade
That’s called Mordhau, or murder strike. German longsword goes crazy
I saw the video and thought you got access to that crazy lightsaber prototype. Good episode though :)
Give into your anger and do a follow up episode on May the 6
Here is a like, comment, and full view for channel growth.
may the 4th be with you too my good man!
plz do vibro blades, there real(used for cutting ceramics).. and in starwars.
Oh and if all i had was a toy lightsaber to defend my self - switch it round the other way and hit them with the steel/Aluminium handle - not the plastic.
Regarding self defense, I recently came to a realization: walking sticks.
Now im in a situation that i genuinely need a walking stick to aid with walking due to disability, but I used to be quite the badass... (ex forces, former semi pro fighter, blackbelt in judo) - and In my daily workouts(if I dont exercise daily I cant move well at all) I have been incorporating technique with the stick.
Honestly my stick is a very standard one, aluminium body - plastic handle, rubber foot. but do you know what its shaped like? a bloody WARHAMMER, or WARPICK.
a little alteration to the handle and this could go from a dangerous weapon to a VERY dangerous one.
Ive even had ideas about making walking sticks with a torch built in to them to deter people too.
I lack the tools to make a prototype easily but if this idea interests you tyranth - lets talk.
Check out the Shepherd's Axe. My great grandfather used to carry one in the Scottish Highlands.
It is May the 3rd my time, you early for us Americans.
It's a good thing USA does not equal the whole world ;)
@@danielgomez7085 still the 3rd in Canada, Mexico, Brazil, and more so....
@@IAmGarbo so... There’s something called time zones, and they don’t have to accommodate to the rest of us. I live in Mexico and I don’t give a rat’s @$$ whether he posted the video when it’s still the 3rd of May here. The Americas are but a fraction of what the whole world is, but when you’re born thinking your country is the center of the universe it might be difficult to grasp the concept. So... 😐😐😐🙄🙄🙄😂😂😂
@@danielgomez7085 brother I'm Canadian. 🤦♂🤦♂🤦♂ also time zones were made popular by a Scottish born Canadian. so double oof.
@@IAmGarbo for a Canadian your attitude is very ‘murican like 😉 so...
These videos are actually so high quality it's criminal that they don't have more views, feels like youtube really doesn't like weapons and such
They make a carbon fiber blade and make the adapter to use in your current saber you should try that
1:11 you gonna be kidding me... FREEDOM TO AUSTRALIA!
Smart, you should make a series out of unusual defense items and their viability.
Go for the eyes.
Imagine being someone looking for a fight, you pick a guy with cool beard and crispy voice, and next thing you know you are getting your ass whooped by a toy lightsaber like it was a martial arts quaterstaff xD
1. How effective would a thrust to the eye be?
2. How effective would a "lightsaber" be for blocking bladed weapons of varying lengths? Polearms? Sticks?
3. Are there lightsaber hilts that could be used as weapons? For strikes with either end.
1) Even if you don't land the hit it would make for an excellent distraction. If you actually get a poke to land eyes are pretty delicate so you might debilitate someone briefly.
2) Depends on the mass of the object you're trying to deflect. Polycarbonate is pretty light and against a hard edge it WILL suffer damage. You might get away with slapping a knife out of the way or a long thin blade thanks to leverage but anything larger and heavier I wouldn't bet on.
3) As long as you can hit with it it can act as a weapon. The harder and heavier the more damage!
Here's an idea for you; find a way to insert a steel prototype into the poly carbonate tubing. Now you've got something nobody will bat an eye at and a feasible self defense tool.
Hey man! I'm a big fan of your work, I'm enjoying this series especially. I just wanted to throw in my 2 cents when it comes to lightsabers for self-defense; I sometimes carry a lightsaber for self-defense, particularly when I can't bring a gun or a knife. Instead of using it with the blade attached, I would primarily just use it a heavy flashlight doing a flash-bash-dash. It works similarly to using a Mag-Lite for self defense, only better since lightsabers are ergonomic and made of metal. I even have 2 screws on the emitter in order to help direct the force onto a smaller surface area.
Thank you for another entertaining video Tyranth. Musical greetings from Belgium, Gunther (singer and lyrics writer of Gabriel Scar)
Tyranth should be getting way more views. Solid content, dude. I'm loving it.
Sadly this one did quite badly for views oh well is it what is I guess thanks for enjoying 👍🏼
Near as I can tell a polycarbonate lightsaber blade is at least as good (or bad) for self defense as is a shinai (bamboo sword for those not in the know).
With both you will know that you’ve been hit but unless you get hit in a particularly sensitive area like the eyes, throat, kidneys or groin, you’re still in the fight. What you said about adrenaline is absolutely correct- people have not even noticed gunshot wounds thanks to adrenaline, not to mention people fighting despite what should be instantly lethal wounds while under the influence of certain, uh, “chemical enhancements”.
If nothing else you could use it in stabby mode to keep an attacker at bay. People as a general rule are more averse to being firmly poked than hit.
I’m pretty sure you have a shinai or three- how about a followup comparing one against a lightsaber used on the same kinds of targets?
Actually I think stabby mode could be surprisingly effective as you are applying the impact force along the column of the blade where it would be strongest
I mean if you break someone's nose, a lot of the time that is enough to make them back off. Sometimes breaking a nose can even blind someone as it causes the muscles around the bottom of the eyes to swell up--I've seen it happen. So don't sleep on a solid strike to the nose.
If you're trying not to be lethal, you have to be careful about this, but then again why should anyone give a shit about being non-lethal to someone attacking them in the first place?
I only ever had the cheap plastic toy lightsabers as a kid, but you could hit pretty hard if you wanted to.
Dude, those retractable ones could stick fully extended and would hurt like hell if you jabbed someone in the gut with it. I still have my Qui-Gon one from 1999 and it was always something my brother and I had to be careful about in our lightsaber duels growing up. "No thrusts" was a rule with us precisely because of how much it would hurt.
@@VegetaLF7 I had the same rule and saber. You would think that since they collapse it would go back in, but they wouldn’t. The cheap ones were also stiffer and had thicker plastic than the electric ones.
@@TheSpongyMallard Yup. Got a relatively newer Darth Vader one that collapses easier, but that thicker plastic on the older Qui-Gon one just refused to go in.
Anything that is a force multiplier is better than nothing when it comes to self defense.
Another banger, May the forth be with you Tyranth! Would you be able to test Shinobu’s weird stabby katana from Demon Slayer?
Since you've already dented that one something good id be interested in seeing if you could knock a knife or something out of someones hand and how well it would hold up to a strike from one of your swords
people can break bricks with their bare hands I think that says a lot about what the better tool for self-defense is
Came here from the second vid and the second vid... did not disappoint at all (Seriously) 😂😂😂😂
There was a guy somewhere that pulled some math out of his ass and said that activating a light saber with the powers displayed in the movie would catch the user on fire instantly. I don't know, man, if a lifeform generates heat, then maybe the strength of the Hulk would do that too. Basically, everything in fantasy would instantly catch fire in the real world...or vice versa. Thank god you didn't resort to THAT!
hide the steel prototype inside a polycarbonate tube for an actually hard-hitting saber
You catch someone one time on the face with at least 4in of the tip, I think it will shock them. Gives you time to run or follow up the defense.
Now the question is how effective they can be as makeshift clubs without the blade attached, carrying it like it's off.
That’s just essentially a short baton. Could deal damage, but I’d rather have a knife 😂
@@saphyrepyre I'm from Texas I just open carry a gun 😂
Watched it on 4th of May.
Good timing mate
Have you ever seen what damage a tightly rolled magazine can do?! Anything can be a weapon, if you're creative enough. ;)
I notice you didn't test the steel prototype on yourself.
May the third be quenched.
. May the 4th. I'm happy to see so many Star Wars things this day. It's nice to celebrate the history of something... even when trash was trying to overwrite it, the history is STILL there.
Great video!
Well I was thinking to purches a gun but a lightsaber sounds and looks much cooler.
It's good to know a guy/girl in a cosplay costume can use his saber (against an assaulter) without the worry of a saber broken in two parts 👍.
Polycarbonate is a trustworthy material.
So long as it’s a quality one👍🏼 but then it’s down to a skill issue haha
Just as the Jedi Counsil intended.
Green lightsabers for the win!
Csn you do a how good is captain America's shield as a defense video?
If you want the best lightsaber,get a Theory saber. From Star Wars Theory.
I thought you have a real real one 🤣
the answer? murderstrikes. that aluminium hilt is going to do alot more damage trent
You could always hold the blade and have a very effective metal club in your hand. nudge nudge wink wink..
May the 3rd doesn't have the same ring to it
Happy May 3rd. lol
7:10 Lol I remember the time a dude in storm trooper cosplay got arrested at gun point in Canada because of his cosplay blaster.
I remember my DL-44 Build video got demonetized for Gun modification... it was a prop
This some bs. Notification 10 mins ago, video uploaded 17 hours ago.
You can't carry a stick in Australia? ....
I don't agree with your last statement.. it is not better than your bare hands at all, with your fists you can potentially knock someone out.. with this tube best case scenario you leave a bruise and that's it.
So I know yall in the oppressed land of the emus can't own them; but the hacksmith minisabers can be uh, very effective for self defense. Has 2 prongs on the sides of the "blade emitter" that work great as a kubaton but also, pretty sure 2600°F on someones...anything really. Is gonna get them to piss off reallllllll quick.
czcams.com/video/5wcE8On8BIA/video.html
Video goes viral.
Australian government uses the video as evidence to make lightsabers illegal. 🤣
I think the purest most distilled and apparent oppression of a people is making it illegal for them defend themselves. Isn't it illegal to carry most nonlethal forms of defense there as well?
Anything for the purposes of self defense including non lethal , pepper spray tasers all of em
Algorithm gang
Man... why does Star Wars have to be so shit? I miss enjoying Star Wars.
Meh light bright fights.
Why do the citizens allow these hyper-restrictive laws? Sad.
hey good way to defend yourself um move to the us and buy a gun
Maybe one day..
@@ScreenTested ayo you and shad thinking about moving to Texas or is Australia turning Red
You can't carry a stick? That's the other direction insanity from completely legal open carry.
It's silly around here too in EU, there are very, very strict laws on what you are allowed to carry in public. Does it matter in the end? No. Had a person get shot down the other week because criminals do not follow laws who would have guessed.
@@huldu Considering that the rate of gun violence in the USA is more than 20-60 times of the civilised world, it seems those laws are not completely useless. (for numbersake in 2019 it was USA 3.18 and for example Germany at 0.05, same year would have been bad for australia with 0.15, which was one of the highest they had in the years around it, still 20 times less that the USA)
2:10 little thin for your personal taste.. lol
